McMillian's death[edit]

This page needs updating--McMillian, a judicial pioneer (first African-American to serve on this court, and, I believe, also the first to serve on Missouri's Supreme Court), died about two weeks ago.

The update has been made.

Writing numbers[edit]

My "Trivia" section uses numeric figures instead of writing them out. Thus, "9 out of 11 judges" instead of "nine out of eleven judges." Which one is stylistically preferred?--Smashingworth 07:18, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Such small numbers are usually written out, though either way is fine. Here is the relevant section of the Manual of Style. NoSeptember ^talk 12:39, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Donald P. Lay died[edit]

Rulings[edit]

I'm surprised there isn't a list of notable rulings. I'm thinking ones that set important precedents, especially if they were ones that the USSC declined to hear, which basically says "yup, lower court got this one right." Anyone have thoughts on what that would cases might be included?
